If you don’t want to do this by hand, you can also use a stand mixer or an electric hand mixer as well. But in doing so, she’s bound to run into more frustrations from diners about their very specific notions about what ube can and should be. It’s something she’s already seen at Peso: One local farmer sells a stark-white variety of ube, which Barbosa used for her halaya for a time when the restaurant first opened. “But people got mad,” she says, “because it wasn’t purple.” Add dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) to creamed butter mixture until dough forms. Pour sweetened condensed coconut milk and ube extract (flavoring) into a tall serving glass. Mix to combine. Omitted usage of whipped cream, coconut milk, or other higher fat mix-ins that are typically in an ube latte.

It’s a root crop used in the Philippines mainly for desserts though we also eat plain Ube roasted/steamed/boiled or slathered with butter and sugar. What does Ube/Purple Yam taste like? She had tried a bit of the plain cooked ube before adding anything else, and found that it didn’t taste like anything special. But when she cooked it for the second time, with the sugar and milk, “that’s when all the nuances come out,” she says. Instead of plain sweet potato flavors (boiled ube) or the color purple (ube concentrate), the jam developed delicate notes of white chocolate, pistachios, and vanilla — the real, true flavor of ube that she had been waiting for. Thankfully, it’s really easy to make a few tweaks and make a much healthier ube latte. With this recipe, I made an ube latte with only 56 calories with x grams of protein, 3 grams of fat, and 1 grams of carbs. Ube definitely hit the mainstream once Trader Joe’s started selling various products flavored with this alluring purple tuber. I was first introduced to this delicious beverage at Teofilo Coffee Company. It was a mild flavored drink made with ube syrup (I think made from ube halaya). There was more focus on the espresso.As Ria Barbosa was getting ready to open a restaurant in Hawai‘i, she was excited to cook with a whole new world of fresh tropical fruits and vegetables — but she didn’t realize just how familiar some would be. Easy Bake - I get tired of plain vanilla and chocolate cakes, but I also don’t always feel like washing, juicing, and zesting fruit, chopping nuts, etc. I love that ube offers a divergence from the norm without requiring a lot of extra work. Ube has a more pigmented purple or deep lavender color and typically has a stronger flavor. While both taro and ube can be described as having nutty flavor, ube has vanilla notes as well as an underlying nutty taste.

Ube has been cultivated in the South Pacific for at least 10,000 years. In the Philippines, it’s actually a native crop, standing out among the many ingredients brought into the country with successive waves of colonization. Ube likely first arrived in Hawai‘i with the sakadas, Filipino migrant workers who came to the islands starting in the early 1900s to work on the growing cane and pineapple plantations; Barbosa’s own great-grandparents were sakadas, and her paternal grandmother was born on O‘ahu in 1921. This method works great in cold coffee drinks like iced lattes and frozen blended mocha. To make a double shot of "instant espresso":

Naturally Colorful - The shade of ube is one of its most enticing qualities. It has such a beautiful purple, and you don’t have to use any artificial dyes to achieve it. My kids and I love to pretend we are making the cupcakes from Cat In The Hat when we make this! Used almond milk, which is the lowest-calorie milk option. The flavor also pairs well with the nutty ube flavor. Though often mistaken for taro root or Okinawan sweet potato, they are not the same. They are relatives, but not the same tuber.Anthocyanins, which are also responsible for the deep red and purple hues in berries, have been shown to help the body fight inflammation.

Ube is the Tagalog [Filipino dialect] word for tuber that comes for the Dioscorea alata L. plant. The tuber is bright lavender in color," Richelle Rada, RD, LD, a nutrition coach, says. "In my culture, it is commonly made into a jam called ube halaya, then added to foods like Halo-Halo [a shaved ice dessert]."

Nishioka says processed forms of ube are common in the Philippines too, but she always makes a point of working with the fresh stuff. For her, it’s a way to connect with her culture and heritage. “There’s more appreciation when you actually peel, steam, grate, and cook fresh ube,” she says. “For me, it’s showcasing and celebrating the essence of Filipino cuisine.” Once your cream is holding a shape, pour in the cold condensed milk and continue whipping until the mix holds stiff peaks. This will take just 1 to 2 minutes. It’s just like the sweetened condensed milk you know and love, but made with coconut milk instead of cow’s milk!Ube extract is an important and necessary ingredient. It provides that iconic “ube” flavoring while also coloring the cookie dough.
